Rivera: Chase Blackburn's foot sore, but nothing requiring surgery.

 

HAH! Rivera when asked if he uses his veto powers on offense: "Not a lot. One of the things I try not to do, when Mike is in a rhythm, I just don't talk. I think the most important thing I do is say "Hey guys, this is Riverboat Ron, let's go for it on 4th and 1."

Said he leaves the playcalling in game to Shula when he's in a rhythm.  The only time he interrupts when when he calls and says "This is Riverboat Ron, we need to go for it".

 

But says he's still fighting the nickname (as he smiles).

Rivera, politely, says he disagreed with V Davis fumble call. Ref told him Davis did not make a football move

 

He also said they'll submit that play to the league for review and see what sort of explanation they get. But did give credit to the officials for being very thorough in their sideline conferences.

Rivera: Message now going from being relevant to "very relevant."

 

Says he counted 3 drops in his film review. Joe then leads a question with "Nate (Chandler) seemed to struggle.." and before he even finishes Rivera is shaking his head and says "No.." and came to the defense of #78. Admitted there were things he could do better, though. Hangartner also got in on 7-8 snaps and Rivera said "It's very good to have Jeff back and good to have him on the football field for us."

I think people are scared that "Chico" might be racist. 

 

I love how honest he is and does he look like a leader or what.  He's definitely in control and is the general of this franchise.  He was very even keel and was a wash in confidence.

 

Rivera also seems to really like Nate Chandler.

      The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman.

      And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!

      If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
